Tesco Gala apples are sweet and mild in flavour. They are quite small and typically look like they are green with red vertical stripes. They are one of the most popular apples and are great for both baking and eating. Gala apples are sweet in flavour and this becomes even sweeter when cooked so they nicely compliment sweet and savoury dishes, served hot or cold. For example, they are perfect for adding to a fresh chopped salad, and they are great for apple pies, especially when paired with strong flavoured apples like Granny Smith. Gala apples also go nicely with cooked dishes that include turkey, butternut squash and cheese. Class 1.
